Carefree hiking fun

Hiking is a wonderful experience, but each route comes with its own challenges. Careful planning and the right equipment are crucial to minimize risks and make your tours relaxed. Especially when dealing with suckler cows, wildlife and changing weather conditions, it is important to be prepared.

Preparation

Find out about the route, weather forecasts and possible challenges. With children and groups, it is advisable to allow more time than indicated. Be prepared for all weather conditions - bring rain gear, warm clothing and sun protection.

Equipment

The right equipment is crucial for safe and comfortable hiking. Always wear suitable clothing and sturdy shoes. A cell phone, first aid kit, plenty of water and snacks should always be with you. At the same time, it is advisable to keep your rucksack light by packing only the essentials.

Hike respectfully

Hike with respect for nature by not leaving the marked trails. This not only protects the sensitive flora and fauna, but also yourself from potential dangers. Don't leave any garbage behind, don't touch plants and make sure you respect protected areas.

Attention suckler cows

Cow mothers protect their calves and can become aggressive if they feel threatened. For this reason, sufficient distance should always be kept from the animals. The young animals must not be touched and dogs should be kept on a short lead. The pasture gates should be left as they were found.
